The Path to Immortality

The first section of the road seemed to be free of any danger.

But just after Fang Ping stepped over the first stone step covered with cracks and moss, he felt something was watching him.

The extremely weak and slightly dangerous peeping gave him a feeling of being watched.

He slowed down his pace, concentrated his consciousness, and kept exploring the source of the peeping feeling.

Suddenly, in a ruin in front of the left, there was a sound of rubble being kicked by something. It seemed that something was hiding in it, waiting for Fang Ping to get close to launch a sneak attack on him.

"Found you!"

Fang Ping's eyes flashed, and he ignored the false phantom sound at all, but turned around suddenly, and the scorching sun true fire roared out and blasted behind him.

The next moment, there was nothing in the air, but after the golden red scorching sun true fire flew over, the hot flames instantly illuminated a dark ghost.

The robes that the ghost had transformed into were just like the Huangquan Sect disciples of the past. His face was surrounded by black air, and his appearance could not be seen clearly. But the aura of cultivation he revealed was at the level of the late stage of foundation building.

Although the ghost immediately disappeared again after the scorching sun true fire dissipated. But whether it was the divine consciousness or the current spiritual eye technique, it could easily lock its existence.

"Is this... the soul of the Huangquan Sect disciple who was surrounded and suppressed that year, eroded by the yin energy here, and transformed into a ghost?"

Fang Ping immediately determined its origin.

A ghost in the late stage of foundation building is nothing to Fang Ping now.

But any ordinary ghost that he encountered casually has such strength, which is enough to prove the danger in Tiancan Island.

Of course, there is another possibility: the entrance to this passage into Tiancan Island is not actually on the periphery of Tiancan Island, but unfortunately located in an area closer to the center!

"... cultivator... die!"

The ghost, although no longer a human being, still retained a small amount of fragmented memories.

It attacked Fang Ping with a voice full of resentment, shouting in fragmented words hoarsely.

One after another, the eerie black air turned into sharp arrows and shot towards Fang Ping.

Given the dangers in Tiancan Island, no matter what battle you encounter, the best way is to fight quickly and leave the place as soon as possible.

Fang Ping stretched out his hand and released two rays of scorching sun mystical light.

After being re-refined, the golden-red scorching sun mystical light also increased its power.

One of the mystical lights flashed in front of Fang Ping and cut all the arrows. The other mystical light flew out of the air and headed straight for the late foundation building ghost.

The ghost seemed to feel the fatal threat and made a terrified and sharp sound. It condensed a series of circular sound waves that were almost visible to the naked eye, trying to delay the scorching sun mystical light.

However, whether it was the Great Sun True Method that Fang Ping practiced, or the scorching sun mystical light and other spells, they all had the characteristics of being extremely yang and extremely strong, and could be said to be the nemesis of ghosts.

No matter how hard it resisted, it was doomed to be in vain the moment Fang Ping discovered it.

After just a breath.

The ghost was completely burned by the golden flames and turned into ashes and scattered on the ground.

Before Fang Ping could retract the Fiery Sun Mysterious Light, the sound of gravel being stepped on appeared again in the ruins of the palace not far away.

"Again?"

Fang Ping thought it was still an illusion, but the next moment, he saw more than ten ghosts flying out of the ruins, looking at him dimly, with eyes full of resentment.

Some of these ghosts were also wearing the clothes of Huangquan Sect disciples, but some were also wearing the clothes of other immortal sect disciples, or they were not human forms at all, but were transformed from the souls of spirit beasts.

But even the weakest among them had the foundation-building stage.

Among them, there were even a few who had perfected the foundation-building cultivation.

Fang Ping frowned, flicked his fingers, and a stream of Fiery Sun True Fire shot out.

The golden red true fire contained power beyond imagination. In a flash, more than a dozen foundation-building ghosts were mostly destroyed.

Only two ghosts with perfect foundation-building cultivation were lucky enough to avoid the true fire and rushed to Fang Ping.

However, nine scorching sun lights had already set up the Xuanguang killing array in front of Fang Ping, waiting for them.

Before the two ghosts launched an attack, Fang Ping pinched the magic formula and triggered the killing array.

"Boom!"

The golden-red flames exploded violently in the center of the Xuanguang killing array.

The raging aftermath was enough to sweep a radius of dozens of feet. But in order to avoid greater danger from the movement, Fang Ping took action immediately and suppressed the flames in the killing array.

When the flames dissipated again, the two foundation-building ghosts in the center of the Xuanguang killing array had already turned into annihilated Yin Qi and completely dissipated like their other companions.

"Sure enough, with my current strength, those below the Jindan level are just like chickens and dogs!"

Simply making a move, he had such power, which made Fang Ping have a more real understanding of his current combat power.

I don't know if it was a coincidence, just when he had this thought, a stream of Yin Qi surged in the depths of the ruins, and more ghosts emerged from it.

This time, the number was no longer just a few or a dozen, but a large mass, at least dozens or hundreds. With cold and hateful eyes, they all looked at him, as if looking at a dead person.

Fang Ping's face changed slightly, and the Five Elements Body Forging Method was pushed to the extreme. With the blessing of the gray spiritual light, he quickly retreated.

With all his strength, it was not difficult for him to kill these foundation-building ghosts.

But at the same time when these ghosts appeared, Fang Ping's intuition was triggered, and he felt that there was a more obscure and strongly malicious gaze from the depths of the ruins.

If these foundation-building ghosts only gave him a slightly dangerous feeling.

The malicious gaze that just flashed by made Fang Ping feel a strong threat, even a warning sign.

He chose to show his true cultivation, just to deter the powerful ghost in the dark.

This move seemed to have some effect. The owner of the gaze was obviously a little afraid of his strength. After a brief hesitation, he did not choose to show up and kill, but let Fang Ping withdraw from the scope of the ruins.

"In the depths of this ruin, there is a monster comparable to the Golden Core Realm!"

After successfully exiting the most dangerous area, Fang Ping secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.

He was almost certain that the current location was definitely not the periphery of Tiancan Island.

The large group of ghosts that emerged at the end also had no intention of chasing.

It was unknown whether it was for some other reason or because they were afraid of Fang Ping's strength, but they slowly stopped after flying a hundred feet. After circling in the air unwillingly for a few times, they disappeared into the previous ruins again.

Looking back, Fang Ping found that these ghosts did not chase him, and his escape light also stopped abruptly and stopped at the original place.

Based on his understanding of ghosts, they should hate living people very much. Even if they were afraid of chasing and killing rashly due to the strength of the Jindan realm, they would not return to the original place immediately.

Such a uniform action was really a bit strange.

Could it be that there was something special in the ruins that attracted or imprisoned them?
